...the UK? Hi guys,

A friend of mine is being a bit of an idiot and bought a 650cc motorcycle... I told him that until two years after he passes his test he cannot drive anything above a 125cc.

It is right that someone under 21 cannot ride anything over a 125cc bike until two years after their test.
What will happen if he passes his test then rides this 650cc?
 
The rules on motorcycles in the UK are complex. Before passing the test you are limited to 125cc(other restrictions also apply to the machine) after passing you are restricted to 250cc for two years or if you are over 21 you can progress by taking a fast access course and test.
 
the law has changed now yet again when your under 21 and passed your test your restricted till your 21 bummer but you can ride anything up to 33BHP so you can go out and buy a i dunno suzuki gsxr1000 and pay to restrict it down to a 33BHP but you cant do that till you've passed your test.
